A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

This one must be the worst. "Could care less" being a close second

[–] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 3 points 8 months ago

I mean for all intensive porpoises I could care less

[–] Pinklink@lemm.ee 3 points 8 months ago

Nah, there is some scents there. As in, I barely care, but I could care less.

That bot gets downvoted so much by idiots. It's not pedantry but fucking 1st grade English. Amazing how many people take offense instead of fixing it and moving on.

I prefer the must of white grapes for wine making than the must of red grapes.
